Chandigarh: Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has expressed his gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for naming Punjab’s Adampur Airport after Sant Shiromani Guru Ravidas Ji. He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken a historic decision. Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini was speaking to the media at Haryana Bhawan in New Delhi on Monday.
During this, he said that it is a matter of great pride for us that on the sacred occasion of Sant Shiromani Guru Ravidas Ji’s birth anniversary, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has named Adampur Airport as “Sri Guru Ravidas Maharaj Ji Airport.” This naming is a true tribute to the immortal ideals of Sri Guru Ravidas Maharaj Ji. The values of equality, compassion and service given by him continue to inspire society even today and guide us towards building a harmonious, just and humane society. This initiative will not only honour his great thoughts but will also provide future generations an opportunity to draw inspiration from his message. He said that this step also reflects that our nation continues to remember those great personalities who worked to give direction to society.
Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been continuously naming major institutions of the country after saints and great personalities, which is a true tribute to them. Recently, Ayodhya Airport was named after Maharishi Valmiki. Similarly, Hisar Airport has been named after Maharaja Agrasen.
Budget presented keeping every section of society in mind
This time’s Union Budget has been presented keeping every section of society in mind. Haryana has been given special place in this budget. The issue of waterlogged (salinity-affected) land has been addressed in the budget, and special emphasis has been laid on MSMEs, industry and AI, which will directly benefit Haryana. Taking a dig at the Congress, he said that the Congress was in power for 55 years but could not present such a budget. This budget empowers women. It provides employment to youth. It strengthens farmers. It is a budget that fulfils the aspirations of 140 crore countrymen, including farmers, youth, women and the poor.
BJP government will be formed in Punjab
Responding to a question related to Punjab, Saini said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a Bharatiya Janata Party government will be formed in Punjab. The people there have made up their mind that if Punjab has to move forward, a BJP government will have to be formed. The Congress and Aam Aadmi Party governments have only shown false dreams to the people. Recently, floods occurred in Punjab and farmers’ crops were damaged. The Chief Minister there said that they gave farmers compensation of ₹20,000 per acre, while the head of his party went to Gujarat and claimed that they had given ₹50,000 compensation to farmers. They are only trying to fool the people. Farmers suffered losses, and they are only doing politics over it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi understood the problems of Punjab’s farmers and provided ₹16,000 crore assistance to them.
